2011 already?!

It's been so fucking long since I even logged into this account that dust seems to have accumulated on my webpage. I also forgot how to begin a blog post...and middle and end it. Not that I ever did know the right way, in fact, it occurred to me that some bloggers may actually write about things people care about. I am not one of those bloggers. I prefer to bitch about things that matter to me. Fair enough, right?
So it's 2011 now, as you probably might have noticed by the endless stream of new years resolution videos on Youtube. By all means, go ahead and record a ten minute video of you rambling about how you plan to go skiing in the Arctic and actually work out for real this time. But I promise you I do not give a shit in any shape or form. For the most part I avoid New Years videos. They can be sorted into two categories: a) People who are very serious and have written an extensive list of things to fix in the new year b) People who oppose resolutions yet somehow still manage to ramble on about what their hypothetical resolutions might be if they believed in them, which of course they don't.
Right.
Well, this post will not bore you with my resolutions though I have a few. I assume most of them will be broken sooner than later and so it would be wise to keep them to myself, just making the failure that much less humiliating. Am I right? Speaking of Youtube, I've halfheartedly decided to start making more videos. Rarely will I upload a video of myself just talking. I used to do that-and I somehow acquired 29 subscribers from doing so, probably more than half are spam-but videos of random scenery. I find a good song accompanied by trees and people on swings to make for quite the compelling video.
However. I thought I'd share with a few valuable lessons I learned throughout 2010, since I refuse to go off on tangents about my plans for self-improvement in the new year. All right.
#1) Do not raid the fridge/shovel food into mouth while mother is out shopping. It is a proven fact that as soon as you have stuffed yourself silly, she will show up bearing bags full of delicious food and you will be very upset.
#2) It is possible to rent movies on iTunes. (WHO KNEW!?!?!)
#3) Green tea is simply not an acceptable substitute for coffee. Ever.
#4) Being a senior in high school is not any more enjoyable than being a freshmen. You're just taller. And permafried.
#5) They don't speak Spanish in Italy.
#6) They speak Italian.
#7) Italian is a language.
#8) Reading seven books at the same time is a little harder than you'd expect.
#9) Do not watch Portia and Ellen's wedding video without an entire box of tissues within arms reach.

I'd include more, but it's Sunday and that means last minute homework doing. Or procrastinating. They're both suspiciously alike.
